Hazel Blears – Labour was “wicked and malicious”

Theresa May took a lot of flack for calling the British Conservative Party, the “nasty party“. She was right and it took a lot for Conservatives to at least appear to have shifted from that image.

Eight years later Hazel Blears makes a similar assessment of the Labour government. She called the last Labour government wicked and malicious at a fringe meeting of the 2010 Labour Party Conference. A well deserved description. Within hours she denies ever using that phrase and if she did she claimed it was directed at “Tory cuts”.

Within a day she is caught out as being nothing but a wicked and malicious liar.
